I ordered mine last November. If you cancel the 2022 and try for 2023, I would venture to say that you could face the same problem with the next model year.
From my research, the problems were driven by covid and poor choices on the Ford parts ordering group.
1. At the start of the shutdowns someone at Ford guessed that people would not purchase as many vehicles so they canceled their order for chips. Only one plant in the far east makes the chips required.
2. Orders for vehicles went up and orders were placed for the chips and Ford was put at the back of the line
3. There was a fire at the plant and they did not have any production or limited production for several weeks or months.
4. Plant was back up in the fall and an earthquake stuck the same plant and production was stopped again
5. Chip production stopped and came back up after several weeks of limited or low production
6. In early 2022 a second earthquake hit the same plant. Again no or limited production for several weeks.
The question is why is Ford depending on a far east supplier for the chips that are required. There should be multiple plants in the US (primary), Canada, or Mexico that make the chips. At the same time, the move to electric cars has to be increasing the demand for chips.
Now with a war going on in Europe, additional shutdowns in China, and the normal occurrence of disasters this problem can only continue to get worse.
Ford, PLEASE COMMUNICATE with your loyal customers.
